Richard's Swing Makeover Pt. 11: Time to assemble!

Chief Meteorologist Richard Nunn is finally putting together pieces and parts to make "This Old Swing," as he nears the end of his project to restore his mother-in-law's nearly 100-year-old family heirloom hand-forged porch swing. Finally, the swing is taking shape, but Richard discovered he'll have to make a couple of minor changes to the hardware to allow proper anchoring of the slats where it bends at the back of the knee. It will look cleaner, and the transition will be more comfortable for long, lazy days swinging in the shade.
